the myth of fingerprints
Sep. 12th, 2009 12:06 pmDon't read anything into the title, I just couldn't think of one and that song is stuck in my head.
Let's see, what's the what. Um...
Life is okaying for the time being. Gracie has started school and has resettled like she never left. Gets very excited to get on the bus in the mornings. She is gone from 8:15 to 3:15, which gives me a proper amount of time to myself, which is nice. The plan for this week is to film the video to the song I just recorded. Next week I will do things like go riding and haul my ass into the city to pester my agent.
Gracie is chatty and communicating, and working at communicating. As she gets more with the talking, so too does she get more with the listening (a bit), which is s nice thing. She also gets smarter and more wily, able now to climb up the chain link fence, reach the latch, and open it, gah. Today she has been extra cuddly as we sit here and watch the Simpsons Movie. She also has been sleeping in her own bed all night. Rob's and my deal with that is, if she wakes during the night and stays in her own bed, he goes in and get her back to sleep. If she wakes and comes into our bed, he goes into her room, she stays with me, and I get her back to sleep. He has to move either way, but he is always more likely to fall back to sleep after, whereas I usually wind up staying up and then not sleeping if I move into her room, and she and I can share the big bed pretty well. I always get my morning cuddle though, which is THE way to wake up.
Tomorrow is Bway on Bway, and I will go meet up with bunches of camp kiddies for mini-reunion and insanity. Fun. Rob is at a gig today with his new event band out in Massapequa, and so of course he will go after and pick us up Big Daddy's for dinner. One of my campers is in the area and she is going to come hang out with me and Gracie in the meantime.
I have reconnected with some friends of Days Gone By, and am continually disappointed by others but am doing my best to adjust expectations, so it's all okay. I sort of feel myself beginning to Deepen (for those of you who remember A Wind In The Door) more and more, and part of the Deepening is being okay with it.
